Time to Wise Up

Posted Sunday, September 19, 2010, at 4:04 AM

I grow tired of the left and their love affair with Islam. It is hard to believe that only nine years after Muslims attacked the United States and murdered three thousand Americans, causing billions of dollars of damage, liberals fight on to defend Islam.

It is not hard to understand really. Truth is a natural enemy to liberalism, and the left eagerly supports anyone who opposes Christianity, almost blindly, like they are in some sort of mental fog.

How many times have we heard from libs that "Islam is a religion of peace". Hogwash. Libs, in their ignorance and historical revisionism always point to the Crusades as evidence of Christian wrong doing. The Crusades were an answer to Muslims invasion and attacks into Europe and the Holy Lands.

Let us examine some verses from the Koran talking about this alledged "peace".

"Do not hanker for peace with the infidels; behead them when you catch them." Qur'an 47:4

"The unbelievers are stupid; urge the Muslims to fight them." Qur'an 8:65

"Muslims must not take the infidels as friends." Qur'an 3:28

"Terrorize and behead those who believe in scriptures other than the Qur'an." Qur'an 8:12

"Muslims must muster all weapons to terrorize the infidels." Qur'an 8:60

There are many more, I just can not stand to quote anymore of this phony religion of peace. Actually, there are over a hundred of these lovely verses in the Koran.

In America, leftists have no problem cursing the God of the Bible or Christ. But you won't hear them curse Mohammad, will you? Why? Because they know these same "peaceful" Muslims will cut their throats.

Consider the American journalist in Seattle who formed a "everyone draw Mohammad" contest. She has had to change her name, and go underground to keep from being murdered by these purveyors of peace.

Sir Francis Bacon once said, quite correctly, that "knowledge is power". It is time that Americans wise up to Islam, and stop buying all the propaganda put out by Muslims and their liberal friends.

Recently, as Muslims try to build their victory mosque in New York City, we hear much about tolerance. Muslims already have one hundred mosques in New York. That is just plain crazy, yet they want more, and the numb skulls on the left want to give it to them, under the guise of "freedom of religion." The same folks that oppose Christmas trees, and Nativity scenes, and the very mention of God in schools, suddenly have a new found fervor for freedom of religion.

It would be hilarious, if it weren't so dangerous.

I just watched a sickening video of the stoning of a young woman by hundreds of Muslim men. I was going to post a link to this video, but frankly, it is just too disgusting. A testament of Sharia law, the same Sharia law that Muslims want to bring to the USA.

From ekurd.net, you can read a description of the "religion of peace" in action. Du'a Khalil Aswad, a beautiful 17 year old girl was "brutally stoned to death in front of 2000 men, the killers included her uncle and some of her closest relatives."

These so-called men acted with "murderous delight" as they kicked her repeatedly in the head while she was on the ground begging for help. They tore off her clothes, and continued to kick at her, and finally one of these brave Muslims pounded her head with a concrete block, while others danced around capturing her murder with cameras and cell phones.

Her crime? She had stayed out all night and wanted to marry a man outside of her religion.

Here is a video for you, and if you haven't just finished eating, maybe you can watch it without throwing up:

This is a stunning video of Massachusetts middle schools students taken to a mosque and subjected to Islamic propaganda and lied to. You have to face the truth friends, if these kids had been taken to a Christian church and told about Christ, the left would still be screaming about it, demanding that those involved be fired.

I am not advocating a holy war against Muslims. I am advocating that we Americans soberly face the truth about Islam, and its true goals.

Must we always be chumps that only face the truth after the death of our citizens? Do we have to bow and scrape to those who wish us evil?

One of the fastest ways to get in trouble with the left is to tell the truth. Truth is liberal kryptonite.

Must we endure another mass murder, and still another mass murder before we put our foot down and say "no more?"

Let's stop playing games with Islamic Nazis. If you study the world's conflicts at this very moment, you'll find that almost all of these conflicts involve Muslims that can not or will not get along with their neighbors.

Muslim terrorists, and Islamic nut jobs have killed and killed again, and terrorized and brutalized over and over again. It is time we face facts.

It is time to wise up. If you study the support for Islam in America, you will notice one constant thread. The hatred of Christians and Jews.

We don't need another 911 to wise up. All you need do is open your eyes, and however unpleasant, face the honest facts.

Islam does not mean "peace" as the liberals will try and tell you. The more correct definition would be "submission".

Are you ready to submit? Then wise up, before more innocent Americans are killed for the glory of Islam.

How many times do you need to hear Muslims around the world chanting "Death to America" before you realize that they mean it?

Texas has your back Sam. Did I mention I'm rally enjoying your Palin technique of posting? You know just toss something out there but not answer any kind of questions about it. Well done!

Sam, next time before copying and pasting your lies you should actually look at a Qur'an.

Quoting from you:

"Slay the unbelievers wherever you find them." Qur'an 2:191

First of all you completely misquoted and therefor took out of context what the passage says. In full it reads:

"Fight in the cause of God those who fight you, but do not commit aggression: God loves not the aggressors. SLAY THEM WHEREVER YOU FALL UPON THEM, and expel them from where they had expelled you; apostasy by force is indeed more serious than slaying." 2:189

Through your selected editing (or more than likely copy and pasting) it does appear to be a violent passage but when it is taken in full context it is telling Muslims to fight in defense of God those who have already attacked.

Quoting you:

"Make war on the infidels living in your neighborhood." Qur'an 9:123

Again the language has been changed to provide completely different context. The actual passage reads

"O believers, fight the unbelievers near you, and them find you harsh, and that God stands with the pious"

This passage does not actually exist. In the Qur'an the 9s end at 9:129 at which point the book of Jonah starts at 10. This passage is made up.

Again, quoting you:

"Any religion other than Islam is not acceptable." Qur'an 3:85

Before I embark on this one let me remind that there several Christian groups that believe the Bible says the same thing. Once again this exact passage does not exist in the Qur'an. The 3s end at 3:200 and begin with the book of Women starting at 4.

"The Jews and the Christians are perverts; fight them." Qur'an 9:30 Yet another passage completely made up out of thin air. The Qur'an did treat Islam as the supreme religion but it also recognized Judaism and Christianity as having roles in creating Islam. It treats Jesus, Adam, Moses, and John the Baptist as prophets, just like Muhammad.

Your apparent translation:

"Maim and crucify the infidels if they criticize Islam." Qur'an 5:33

The real translation:

"In truth, the punishment for those who make WAR against God and His Messenger, and roam the earth corrupting it, is that they be killed, or crucified, or have their hands and feet amputated, alternately, or be exiled from the land. This would be their shame in the present life, and in the next a terrible torment awaits them - except those who repent before you gain mastery over them. Therefore, you must understand that God is All-Forgiving, Compassionate to each." - Qur'an 5:32

The passage that is slaughtered by you is actually talking about taking vengeance on those who war against God, not Islam.

"The infidels are unclean; do not let them into a mosque." Qur'an 9:28

I would really like to meet who supplied you with these quotes because they obviously have never even opened a Qur'an let alone read it. Here is what 9:28 actually says:

"O believers, the polytheists (in other words those that believe in more than one God) are indeed a pollution, so let them not approach the Sacred Mosque beyond this year of theirs."

"Here are two rivals who disputed about their Lord. For those blashpened, garments of fire have been tailored, And over their heads is poured scalding water, Melting therewith their innards and their skins. Upon them shall be clasps of iron; Whenever they seek to escape their torment, they are driven back to it:"

Personally sounds more like a description of Hell to me.

"Do not hanker for peace with the infidels; behead them when you catch them." Qur'an 47:4

Again, this one seems completely made up, paraphrased from the actual text which reads:

"That is because those who disbelieved followed falsehood, while those who believed followed the Truth from their Lord. Thus does God strike to mankind their parables (notice that last word, a parable is a religious story that is supposed to teach a lesson, it isn't actual action).

When you encounter the unbelievers, blows to necks it shall be until, once you have routed them you are to tighten their fetters. Thereafter, it is either gracious bestowal of freedom or holding them to ransom ..." 47:2-47:6

"The unbelievers are stupid; urge the Muslims to fight them." Qur'an 8:65

The only part of this that has any truth to it is the word fight:

"O Prophet, urge the believers on to the fight. If there are twenty steadfast among you they will overcome two hundred; if there are a hundred of you you they will overcome a thousand unbelievers, for they are a people of no understanding" - 8:63-8:65

Amazing what happens when you leave context out. This passage is telling the believers that as long as they believed they could overcome a force of ten times their size of unbelievers. They are unknowing because they do not know of the faith.

"Muslims must not take the infidels as friends." Qur'an 3:28

As I pointed out earlier this passage if full falsehood and appears nowhere in the Qur'an as the 3s end at 3:200.

"Terrorize and behead those who believe in scriptures other than the Qur'an." Qur'an 8:12

This has to be embarrassing. This is taken so far out of context that whoever invented this forgot to mention that it was God who said that he would terrorize:

"Remember when God revealed to the angels: 'I am with you, so grant the believers resolve. I shall cast terror into the hearts of the unbelievers. So strike above the necks, and strike their every finger!' For they defied God and His Messenger, and who defies God and His Messenger, God is sever in retributions. Here it is: so taste it! For the unbelievers the torment of the Fire!" Qur'an 8:11

Finally the last completely made up passage:

"Muslims must muster all weapons to terrorize the infidels." Qur'an 8:60

Here is what 8:60 actually says:

"Should they incline to peace, incline to it also, and put your trust in God. He is indeed All-Hearing, Omniscient. But if they intend to deceive you, God is sufficient for you. He it was Who vindicated you with His support, and with the believers; and He it was Who brought their hearts together. Had you spent all that is on earth you could not have brought their hearts together, but it was God. Who reconciled them to one another. He is Almighty, All-Wise."

No mention of any weapons. In fact, the passage is pretty clear that the only weapon they need is God himself.

Would you like to know why I know you copy and pasted these passages instead of looking them up? Every other place you refer to book as the Koran and yet in the parts where you supposedly quoted the book you called it the Qur'an.

Next time Sam take some time and actually look at the passages to see what they say.

The difference between you and me (among the many) is that I respect all religions and try to learn from them all. You fear other religions and will smear them at every point. But even this is over the line for you. It is a straight-out lie about what a holy book says.

I noticed Iggy made no references to the New Testament, from which Christianity is based. I noticed you did not finish in entirety Genesis 22:1-18. Again, this is you the atheist, purposefully misquoting the Scripture, thus taking the entire Bible out of context.

Consecrate according to Merriam-Webster Dictionary, "dedicated to a sacred purpose". Here you misquoted Scripture, for Exodus 13:1 states "Then the Lord said to Moses". Not, "the Lord said", as you stated.

I could go on and waste valuable time and space. The point here is that Guillermo will not distinguish the differences between Old Testament, Gods rules, laws, and punishment for the Israelites, and the New Testament, Jesus' path toward salvation for everyone.

Such is the thinking of the atheist.

-- Posted by Chunky Peanut Butter on Sun, Sep 19, 2010, at 5:57 PM

@MH Very nice I thourghly look forward to the reply Sam comes up with for that.

@CPB Your not even trying anymore. Why is it when you purchase bibles they contain both the old and new testament? Since the old testament doesn't apply anymore shouldn't you guys be throwing that section in the trash? Although, I suppose arguing a point based on "faith" and not actual fact must be fairly difficult.

-- Posted by Damu on Sun, Sep 19, 2010, at 9:30 PM

"Then the Lord said to Moses", implies the Lord speaks directly to Moses after an event. Whereas "The Lord said", could be twisted into a general statement to all. As is your purpose.

Atheism as defined by Merriam-Webster; "a disbelief in the existence of deity". And; " the doctrine that there is no deity" Do you fit in this definition, or do you have your own?

How do they work into creationism? Wait is science making these up as well? Did God just design those in for a fun mystery? Does god read the Hardy Boys?

Iggy,

Did Jesus Christ, for whom the followers were named, Christians, for whom the New Testament is written, ever preach violence?

The rules of the Old Testament were written to point out sin and it's consequences. Over and over again, the Old Testament point, out the consequences of sin and how it leads to slavery and death, not only of one self, but of their children as well. Over and over again, God used allowed evil people to carry out their will to teach His chosen people to become aware of their sin.

The Amalekites were thieves and terrorists as history has shown. They attacked the Israelites as they entered the Promised Land. They continued to attack the Israeli camps, God knew the people of Israel could never live in peace with the Amalekites present. So He had them destroyed, an answer the the long suffering Israeli prayers. Saul did screw up, he allowed the Amalekite king live, and took the best livestock, thus falling out of Gods favor.

If you had kept up on your Biblical events, you would have known that Jesus came here to complete the laws of the Old Testament. Pointing out the consequences of mans sins and the record of misery because of it. God knew man would never want to stay in the Garden, he knew man would sin, so He gave us the 10 Commandments. If only we could have followed them, we would lead faultless lives. But we couldn't even do that, so He gave us the rules. We saw the consequences of the broken laws. Jesus (God) came to man, as a man, and said, since you were not able to follow the laws, I will give you another choice, FOLLOW ME.

"What does the time of Jesus's ministry have to do with God commanding King Saul to conduct genocide?"

Everything, it shows the consequences for sin, versus life with Christ. Life without war, poverty, fear, slavery, etc.

-- Posted by Chunky Peanut Butter on Mon, Sep 20, 2010, at 11:06 PM

There were Muslims killed in the attacks on 9-11-01 as well as Christians, Jews, and others. The general Muslim community is not responsible for the actions of radical extremists any more than mainline Christianity is responsible for radical extremists such as Fred Philips from Topeka.

If one chooses to, there are numerous passages in the Holy Bible that are just as inflamatory as those Sam quoted from the Koran.

Had the opportunity several years ago to be the on site respresentative for my employer when Islamic and Jewish organizations were each renting seperate spaces at our site for their Schools/worship services on Sunday mornings--they got along fine--did it for two years, never a problem.

Take the time to get to know Muslims, Jews, Hindus, etc before judging them based on far right or far left propaganda.

I don't agree with the location of the proposed community center near Ground Zero, but I defend to the death their right to build it on their property so long as it conforms to local building codes.

Guillermo,

I hope you are just trying to make chunky splutter, I thought you at least knew the role of the Old Testament to Christians even if you don't believe it. Also:

"What does the time of Jesus's ministry have to do with God commanding King Saul to conduct genocide?"

That is the same God that Muslims follow so why are you defending Islam while attacking Christianity, intellectually, shouldn't you be attacking both and Judaism as well in your posts?

-- Posted by SWNebr Transplant on Wed, Sep 22, 2010, at 3:41 PM

Bah, I hate it when you type a bunch of crap then accidentally close it, maybe I'm the only one who does so.

Anyway I had a long rambling post, as usual, but I'll try to sum up.

Using the OT to criticize Christianity doesn't work very well. You would be better to criticize based on past events by so-called Christians. However, I don't think it is fair to judge people on historical events that they didn't participate in or at least support.

You seem to be an adherent of enlightenment ideals, if so would it be fair to judge you based on The Terror?

That made absolutly no sense what so ever.

-- Posted by Chunky Peanut Butter on Fri, Sep 24, 2010, at 11:32 PM

Thanks for the insult, but no. It read like someone spent a great deal of time using Google to quickly scan some one else's research, while searching for the biggest words to link his circular arguments. In other words, no original thought here.

Shouldn't you be at work during your posts? Or are you still unemployed?

All of you took Sunday off from insulting each other, I'm impressed!

A doctoral student, really. Just a few weeks ago you were bragging you were now a part of the LPS system.

Your arguments are circular in that your claim that Christianity by its nature is violent. My rebuttal, Christianity, the New Testament, by its true nature cannot lead to violence.

Your argument, look at all the examples in the Old Testament, people were killed by the command of God. My rebuttal, yes, the Old Testament chronicles the sins man committed and the consequences there of. The New Testament, the testimony of Jesus Christ, acknowledges the Old Testament and shows how not to let sin manifests itself into humanity.

Your argument, that may be so, but how do you reconcile the deaths of the Old Testament? My rebuttal, it happened, now, we as His followers are to live our lives as He instructed, to the letter.

Your argument, see Christianity is evil.

As for Google, any bone head with any search skills can find the mind of Inglaterra on the web.

Only in America can Guillermo Inglaterra go from an education policy wonk in Washington D. C., back to a college student, then a student teacher, and now a grad student! Wow!

And then he offers up an example of a circular argument, that's really a parallel to my example. That's original even for you.

Actually I love science, especially when it serves an actual function, like improving the condition of mankind. Medicine comes to mind. Engineering pretty purposeful. Chemistry, that one affects my life daily. Backwards looking science, still a theory, doesn't really interest me at all, it serves no function to better the human condition.

I guess I'm not really interested in continuing giving you a lesson in religion. I intend to live it. The link to The Pew Research study really is more of a study in theology, rather than religion in general. Christians, real Christians, would probably not have time to study theology, unless they plan to become ministers. They lives should be spent making sure no one goes hungry, naked, poor, uneducated, stranded, abused, isolated, etc.

You can go one living your life however you see fit, I will live mine out with a function and a purpose.

Once again Guillermo, thank you for validating my point. By the way, I took the Pew quiz, only missed one.

Jesus is listed 28 times in the Quran, while Mohammad is listed just 4.
